Our daf makes the claim that the righteous of this world will be rewarded with a meal consisting of shor ha-bor and livyatan – wild ox and leviathan.
As a continuation of the sea shanties that opened this perek, we find the source today:
Rabba quotes Rabbi Yoḥanan as teaching that in the future God will serve a meal for the righteous consisting of the meat of the leviathan, based on a passage in Iyyov (40:30) that is understood to mean that the Torah scholars will feast on it.
We explore the culturally equivalent tales of the Leviathan the phoenix with other traditions.
